About the horse
A top mare with a stellar breeding record!
The champion mare Arctic Helen was a wonderful talent and has proven that she passes on her positive traits to her first foal, Bee Combo, who is competing at the top level. Bar Hopping’s debut crop was born in 2018 and has enjoyed great success.
Arctic Helen was a top mare in her crop, with five wins as a two-year-old and a second-place finish in the Three-Year-Old Elite for Mares under trainer Pekka Korpi, when she surpassed the million-krona earnings mark. She comes from a magical maternal line tracing back to Thankful, the dam of Nevele Pride, but Arctic Helen hails from the “Swedish” branch with the super mare Drottning Sund as her granddam; she won both the Queen Silvia Cup and the Sprinter Championship! Arctic Helen has made a strong start in breeding with her first offspring, Bee Combo (b. 2018), who is competing at the top of her class, and the three-year-old Carla Combo, who has won races at Solvalla.
After the viewing day at Menhammar on Sunday, August 28, the horse will return to Finland. The seller will cover the cost of transport to Sweden following the auction.
